Title |
Introduction to Petroleum Engineering Part I: Basic Concepts (4 credit hours) |
Course Description |
This 4 hour course addresses engineering issues ranging from initial involvement in exploration to analysis of reservoir engineering. It is considered a primary course prior to specialized training programs. Students will gain an understanding of the fundamental concepts involved in petroleum engineering activities and become familiar with the wide range of exploration, petrophysic and reservoir engineering used by the petroleum industry. The course will first cover a brief history of petroleum engineering. Then, basic geology is discussed and will lead in to the petroleum system, exploration and mapping techniques. Next, the course will cover basic petrophysics including lithology, porosity, permeability, water saturation and well logging. Finally, the course will detail basic reservoir engineering.
